If MARTA has its way, fares for using the transit system will go up while services would be cut according to budget approvals the agency's finance committee signed off on last week.According to the panel, the vote was to hike basic fares by $.25 starting in the new fiscal year of July 1, while parking charges for nine lots would also be increased $1.
MARTA is also looking to halt trains from running after midnight, along with eliminating non-productive bus routes.
Public hearings on the proposed fare hikes and service cuts are set for June 16 and 17.
